| 8 | The installer creates the system user group
|
|---|
| 9 | <codeph>vboxuser</codeph> during installation for Oracle
|
|---|
| 10 | Solaris hosts that support the USB features required by
|
|---|
| 11 | Oracle VM VirtualBox. Any system user who is going to use USB devices
|
|---|
| 12 | from Oracle VM VirtualBox guests must be a member of this group. A
|
|---|
| 13 | user can be made a member of this group either by using the
|
|---|
| 14 | desktop user and group tools or by running the following command
|
|---|
| 15 | as root:
|

| 16 | </p>
|
|---|
| 17 | <pre xml:space="preserve">usermod -G vboxuser username</pre>
|
|---|
| 18 | <p>
|
|---|
| 19 | Note that adding an active user to the
|
|---|
| 20 | <codeph>vboxuser</codeph> group will require the user to log
|
|---|
| 21 | out and then log in again. This should be done manually after
|
|---|
| 22 | successful installation of the package.
